Thread: Low Cal Breakfast

Anyone have any good filling low fat breakfasts? I do not like porridge and I wouldnt have time to have a healthy fry with tomatoes, mushrooms etc

how about a slice of wholegrain toast with peanut butter? or a hard boiled egg? you could boil the egg beforehand to save time

Eggs takes two mins to scramble a couple and you can throw some mushrooms or ham in if you like. Micro half a tin of chopped tomatoes while the eggs are scrambling and voila. Takes less than ten minutes to prepare.

I normally have Hovis Wholemeal Medium sliced

Hovis are good for low calorie options although nimble is their lowest but to me it feels like you are eating air!

i use warburton's wholemeal, the slices are smaller but cos they are wholemeal they fill you up more and they are only 58 calories a slice

They must beat that bread with in an inch of its life to get this so airy fairy lol...I like the Hovis Wheatgerm 400g. Its only 56 cals per slice....

This is the one I've settled on.

I tried loads and felt like I was eating nothing and didn't touch the sides.

Yeah I agree Even though the slices are smaller than regular bread I still feel like I am eating a normal-sized sandwich. very handy!

I really like Roberts oatmeal bread. It's chunkier so basically like normal bread and at 70 cals a slice it makes a better sandwich than the warbys wholemeal. Tesco do it in the half loaves too which is handy if you don't eat much!!

Peanut butter on toast is fab but try adding some thin crunchy apple slices on top!! It's well worth the few extra cals!!

Thanks for the tips on bread ladies, will definitely be looking for those x
